commit e9637415a92cf25ad800b7fdeddcd30cce7b44ab upstream.

Linux 3.19 commit 69c953c ("lib/lcm.c: lcm(n,0)=lcm(0,n) is 0, not n")
caused blk_stack_limits() to not properly stack queue_limits for stacked
devices (e.g. DM).

Fix this regression by establishing lcm_not_zero() and switching
blk_stack_limits() over to using it.

DM uses blk_set_stacking_limits() to establish the initial top-level
queue_limits that are then built up based on underlying devices' limits
using blk_stack_limits(). In the case of optimal_io_size (io_opt)
blk_set_stacking_limits() establishes a default value of 0. With commit
69c953c, lcm(0, n) is no longer n, which compromises proper stacking of
the underlying devices' io_opt.

Test:
$ modprobe scsi_debug dev_size_mb=10 num_tgts=1 opt_blks=1536
$ cat /sys/block/sde/queue/optimal_io_size
786432
$ dmsetup create node --table "0 100 linear /dev/sde 0"

Before this fix:
$ cat /sys/block/dm-5/queue/optimal_io_size
0

After this fix:
$ cat /sys/block/dm-5/queue/optimal_io_size
786432
